      Floyd made Manny look average. Lowest offensive output and one of the worst performances of his career vs a past prime May.

        >Manny list his "toughest" opponents?
        >Names boxers he fought at severe catchweights

        This y'alls hero, Pac fans? The man that had to weight-drain the **** out of his toughest opponents? Not the flex Manny thinks it is.

          Floyd is skilled, but he was never a I'll give you all the advantages and still best you type guy. So it's hard to know how good he was, or rather how much credit he should be given?

            "The hardest puncher I faced was the guy that buzzed me and then I KO'd in the 8th. Not the guy that knocked me out with one punch. Not the guy who broke me down, dropped me five times, and stopped me in the 7th."

            "I may have eight losses, but the the best fighter I faced was some dude I beat easily"

            Flip through any Ring magazine over the years - It's always some bull**** like this. Very few fighters have their egos enough in check to be honest.

              People saying Pacman's bout with Floyd wasn't tough haven't seen that fight recently or have some alcoholized amnesia going on. Floyd caught Pacquiao plenty, if Pacman had tried to be more aggressive and tried to actually win he would have been knocked out.

              Btw I was rooting for Pacquiao and always hated Floyd for his woman hating ways But Mayweather always had Pacquiao's number style wise.

                Do you know what professional boxing is actually about? You know, hitting and not getting hit? If Pacquiao wasn't able to get to Floyd enough it was a showing of how good Floyd was, period. If you want all out punches flying go watch bare knuckle or some other bs. This is the sweet science, not the dumb science.

                    marg took manny’s physical prime away

                    manny left behind apart of himself in the ring that night

                    marg be so much easier if manny clinch

                    Marquez and Floyd fights made manny smarter imo

                      It's hilarious reading these butthurt Floyd Boy posts.

                      Maybe if Floyd would have just fought like a man and stopped running and hugging Manny would have mentioned him
